just got back from the Eels concert at the Oosterpoort/Groningen; the support act, Lori Carson, had a hard time (Lisa Germano knows the feeling) but a great voice; Eels started off a bit dutiful, but after Flyswatter they rocked the place; Lisa did a hell of a job, Butch has a great sense of humour, the saxophone player was urged to do a speech, wanted us to close our eyes and sing Kumbayah but didn't succeed; all in all, it was a great performance, E was in a good mood: "hey I smell something, you're smoking, well love is in the air".
